Hey everyone, Another Hawaii lease that I am considering. We only have one Mercedes dealership on island. Want to see if I have any negotiating room here or if this is a good deal. This is a Demo GLC 300 RWD premium package with heads up display and blind spot monitoring. Current odometer Mileage: 4,122 MSRP: $47,005 Sales price: $42,225 Mileage: 10,000 Term: 36 months Down payment: $5000 Monthly payment $469.48 Residual value: 55% Money factor: .00060 Acquisition fee: $1095 Sales tax 4.712 Dealer and government fees total to: $409 Maintenance package: $1580 ![image](https://leasehackr-assets.b-cdn.net/original/3X/4/1/41dc2c79ac1697c517802b7cff0b7c3e0039ee71.jpeg) - Sales rep mentioned that I can’t put any MSDs because the money factor is so low. - I also checked the kbb value of the car and it’s saying Fair Market Range (CPO) $38,548 - $43,551 Thank you in advance for all your help! ---

Don’t put $5000 down that’s an awful idea. This lease is also awful. ---

Horrible deal. And the line about MSDs not being allowed feels like BS ---

Is there a goal amount I should try to negotiate down to? The sales person seems a little more willing to budge. What should I be asking for? Or is this just hopeless and not worth it. ---

I can’t imagine living in Hawaii and not having a four wheel drive car! Between the rain, sand and dirt, seems like a questionable choice. ---

Can’t do much, that dealer has no incentive negotiate. They’re literally the only game in town. ---

What he said. That lease is however awful… that Money Factor is essentially 14% interest unless you’re missing a zero? Assuming you are, .0006 isnt bad at all (1.4%) Each MSD lowers your money factor .00007 so in this case, you could potentially use 8 MSD’s to lower the money factor to .00004 (.1%) but the rate is already pretty strong so I’m not sure I would advise that. I work for Mercedes in AZ and we can discount GLC loaners $7k-$8k. ---

I think it’s $500 every time to take it to them for even just an oil change. But I can’t imagine needing anything more than that during the span of the lease. ---

Shoot! Yes I forgot to add a zero so sorry! Ya I think that’s what the sales person was implying too. I guess I’ll go back to him with the KBB value and without the maintenance package and see what he gets back to me with. ---

For the only dealer on the island it isn’t bad. That being said, how much to ship from California? ---

There’s nothing preventing you from doing your own oil changes on a lease. It might be worthwhile shipping a car if the deal is right.
